Core decisions
Map the money flow before choosing the ledger.
Travel agencies often track client payments, supplier obligations, commissions, refunds, and advisor payouts across more than one system. The accounting setup must make those balances explainable at month end.
Assign each transaction a system of record
Booking and CRM tools may show operational status while the accounting ledger records the financial event. Define which system controls invoices, payments, commissions, and adjustments.
Connect accounting to the software stackDesign reconciliation for exceptions
Test partial payments, cancellations, chargebacks, supplier credits, split commissions, and contractor payouts. Clean month-end reporting depends on how these exceptions are matched and reviewed.
